Buffalo Bills: Game grades for every position from AFC Championship

Tight Ends

One of the players that stood out the most on this offense and had a good game for the Buffalo Bills was Dawson Knox. This season hasn’t necessarily gone the way the second-year tight end would have hoped but games like today showed why the front office was so high on him when they selected him in the 2019 NFL Draft.

Knox finished the game with six receptions for 42 yards and a three-yard touchdown in the first quarter. It was certainly a good thing to see that Knox was able to be productive in a game where the wide receivers struggled, which is what Josh Allen and this offense need more of next season.

Grade: B-

Offensive Line

The Buffalo Bills offensive line seemed to get better as the season went on and the return of Jon Feliciano aligned with the improvement. However, this week against the Kansas City Chiefs was not one of their finer moments, in fact, it may have been one of their worst game all season.

The Bills really struggled to give Josh Allen the protection he needed and he was sacked four times and hit 10 times on Sunday. While some of these were coverage sacks due to how good the Chiefs secondary was doing, there were also times where the Chiefs had players coming through completely unblocked with a free shot on Allen.

There wasn’t much positive from the offensive line in the AFC Championship Game.

Grade: D
